My Little Sicky

I've been trying to hard to sit down and blog.  But instead, I've been doing a lot of sitting down on the couch holding this little cutie.   My poor baby is not feeling so well.  She started getting sick on Tuesday evening and by Wednesday morning it was clear that this was going no where fast.   A quick trip to the doctor revealed a case of RSV and an ear infection.   Its probably important to mention that Cooper also has been a little under the weather.  He's the one who started the sickies around here and he also ended up with a double ear infection and a sinus infection.   I was thanking my lucky stars for my nursing background with all the medications I've been administering lately.  Thankfully, Cooper is feeling much better and I'm hoping Kinley will turn the corner tomorrow, too.   I am looking forward to getting her back to her crib at night and me back to my bed.    A few nights on the couch is about all I can handle.   Suffice to say we have gotten our money's worth out of the Mamaroo the past few nights. 

I am sad that Kinley is sick but happy that I am home to take care of her.  I have learned the past few days that taking care of a sick kid(s) while trying to juggle well kids is quite a task.  I'm so thankful for my parents and my friends who have helped me shuttle kids back and forth to school, etc so that I don't have to take Kinley out.  The girl definitely needs some rest. 
I was hoping to make a trip to Lewistown on Saturday but I'm not certain that is going to happen any longer.  I'm also not sure that we will be able to make it to church on Sunday.   Kinley definitely shouldn't be around other kids right now.  So, there is a good chance we will be confined to the house for a few more days.   By Monday I might be crazy, but hey, I'm half way there as it is!   I'm glad to know that spring is right around the corner and better days are on the horizon.  The kind that involve fresh air and sunshine.
So, stay tuned for some better material and more importantly, stay healthy!
